Fiat has unveiled a head-turning one-off art version of its Topolino, as the carmaker announces that the dinky EV will be coming to the US market for the first time.
The modern Fiat Topolino pays homage to the original 500 Topolino, which was in production from 1936 to 1955.
The car’s name translates to ‘little mouse’, which is a fittingly sweet name for the dinky vehicle.
But if the standard Fiat Topolino isn’t quite cute enough for you, then check out this art car version.

The playful Topolino has been dubbed the Brittolino
The one-of-one Topolino has been dubbed Brittolino and was officially unveiled at Milan Art Week.
It was designed by artist Romero Britto, who is known for founding The Happy Art Movement and likes to center his work around happiness, joy, and optimism.
And the Brittolino is no different – its bold and playful exterior paint work is enough to put a huge smile on the face of even the grumpiest of car enthusiasts.
“Our one-off collaboration with Britto makes perfect sense. Together we have joined two iconic brands with global influence that represent color and happiness,” Fiat CEO Olivier Francois said.
After spending a week in Milan, the one-off Topolino was flown to the US, where it grabbed plenty of attention on display at the Greenwich Concours d’Elegance, and the 2025 New York and LA auto shows.
Now, the cute-as-you-like Brittolino is set to take up permanent residence at the Grand Salon in Britto Palace, the largest art studio in the world.
Much like the standard model, the Brittolino is powered by a 5.5-kilowatt-hour battery and has just enough room for two.
The EV has around 47 miles of range and a top speed of under 30mph.
But what it lacks in speed, it more than makes up for in the adorableness department, don’t you think?
Fiat said the one-off car was very popular in the US
The two-seater electric Topolino is currently only available in Europe and South America.
However, after seeing the interest in the Brittolino when it was brought to the US, Fiat is now set on introducing the Topolino into the US market.
“The Fiat Topolino, our small, joyful, colorful car that is now everywhere in Europe, has made several appearances in the US over the past year, including last month at the LA Auto Show, where it’s creating tremendous excitement among consumers,” Francois added.
“So much so that I’m happy to share that we’ll be bringing the Fiat Topolino to the US, with more details to come next year.”
